Ump said he 'shrugged' the tackle which slipped it high. Didn't realise that was a rule, is it?
They didn’t stop giving those to Selwood last year.

It’s rubbish.

Re: Match Thread Saints v Power Round 7 2023

A loss would rekindle the fire.

In the context of the season, it’s a good effort so far.

Agree... People were questioning the cats frees when the game was in the balance early last night. So, definitely someone should look at.

Re: Demographc for 2024

I am stumped that Dmac is a restricted FA. How is he in the top 25% paid players in the club. Being a restricted FA has nothing to do with the size of your contract, it is a result of how long you have been at a club (8 years??). How much compensation the club would get if we lose a restricted FA i...

Re: Changes v paper baggers

According to yesterday's updated injury list on sportingnews.com.au Jack Steele is still 1-2 weeks away which would appear to me to be more than likely.....wonder if Lyons is playing mind games with Voss? If Steele is cleared to play then he and Membrey are obvious Ins, probably for Bytel (sub) and...

Re: Ben Paton.( Poor)

I remember some VFL games before the leg break year, where his game sense and kicking was better than Coffield. Unfortunately, the leg break was bad timing as I thought it would have been his break out year. Now he’s just a backup until Webster / Coffield come back.

Re: PSA

Some in the match thread were potting Gresham. It was a tough game. Pendles got run down a few times. Gresham, De Goey are X factor players. They are more impact focus rather than accumulators. Probably Gresham is not in the same echelon as De Goey. However, he’s what the current team has. Had De Go...

More players changing their set shot routines.

Higgins pretty much kicks using around the corner now even for 45 degree or less shots.

Re: Vs Pies

Pies gave away a lot of turnover goals against the Lions. St Kilda is good at converting turnovers into goals. Pies will try and have less turnovers given the Lions game. St Kilda is no. 1 in the comp for marks. So, the wet advantages Pies as marks will be hard to take. It's looking like a real adva...

Re: Can anyone make sense of what we have become?

Best running team in the comp. Top for total distance covered and total distance covered at high speed. The second on the distance covered is way behind. On the injury list, 8 out of 13 (excluding Wood) are leg injuries. Majority due to higher volume of running. Next round, Pies don’t have a ruckman...

He should be AA. He’s unpredictable and has the X factor. Just needs to improve on his blaze away instincts. When it comes off, it looks spectacular. Not when it doesn’t.

More like 16 weeks out or even season over.

The fracture might heal in 12 weeks and 4-12 weeks to build up conditioning.

Re: Ross Lyon is a God

With a sample size of 2 games, RL has done wonders.

I still see the Pies as the flag favourites with Dees and Swans close behind.

It’s going to be interesting what changes post this season.

Better off by bottoming out now. This team's done. Last season was diabolical and with the injuries, this year's done before the season has begun. In the end, Clark and Coffield should have been the backbone of a rise. Neither is looking better than a GOP. Outside of Steele and Sinclair, nobody woul...
